Description Ivan Zakharyaschev 2008-09-24 00:58:32 MSD 
gqview-2.1.5-alt1 from Lite 4.0.3

I assume the conventional policy towards history files is not to make them world-readable. (Example: ~/.bash_history is not
world-readable.)

But the file ~/.gqview/history is made world-readable:

$ l .gqview/history 
-rw-r--r-- 1 imz imz 852 Сен 20 03:46 .gqview/history
$ 

Expected: it isn't world-readable. Good example: ~/.mc/history is not world-readable:

$ l .mc
итого 28

Workaround: chmod go-r .gqview/history ; after this, the changed permissions will be kept.
